The 6-story, 32-unit New Law Tenement building at 1220 Seneca Avenue in Hunts Point, owned by Salvatore Gigante, has experienced significant heating and rodent issues recently. Between February and March 2025, there were multiple heat and hot water complaints, affecting the entire building, with at least one complaint remaining open due to lack of access for inspection.
The building has an active rat infestation problem, as evidenced by repeated inspections in 2024 and 2025 showing rat activity, including an inspection as recently as February 2025. There are also several open housing maintenance code violations from late 2024, including issues with carbon monoxide detectors in Apartment 6C, door hardware at the 4th floor, and a reported roach infestation in Apartment 6B. The building has a history of elevator service issues, with multiple complaints documented in 2021-2022 regarding "No Alternate Service," and a recent active complaint from April 2025, though previous complaints during 2021-2022 were closed without violations being found.
Additionally, there are two ongoing violations regarding energy efficiency score display requirements from 2021 and 2023, and multiple recent complaints from February 2025 involving various maintenance issues including doors, windows, electrical wiring, and plumbing problems. The building's bedbug reporting history shows minimal infestation cases, with only one documented occurrence in 2020 that was resolved. The property has undergone multiple inspections for rodent activity between 2023 and 2025, with varying results including both "Passed" and "Failed for Other Reasons" outcomes.
